Originally posted by The Haze: I have just begun the game and after a few days I'm still sort of languidly wandering around. The game is gorgeous and operates flawlessly. It seems, thus far, to be the type of game I will thoroughly enjoy and be in no hurry to finish.

I played the demo and this is exactly what my impression of the game was. Can't wait till it is available here Just hope the third part isn't so unconvenient that it causes sweatty hands and double heartbeating

Thanks Jenny 100...that was exactly what I had read in more than one review which apparently did frustrate some players while others thought it ruined what was otherwise a great game. Reveiwers didn't see the purpose in constantly being removed by guards with no warning and having to replay tons of the game...I plan to use a walkthru for the third part of game

Not enough dying to worry about. Just remember to save frequently. I didnt and got killed(as in the game over) at the cemetry and had to go back and do quite a bit again, had got so interested I forgot to save. Nobody gets sent to the afterlife. Pure adventure game.

Hi Deliterman. I just tried playing the demo version and for me, it was definitely choppy as far as the sound goes, and occasionally the video as well. I think I'm going to go look at the computer specs for this game and make sure I have things up to par....I'd hate to buy it if I can't play it on my machine!

PS Will let ya know how it goes.

Hi catbelly; i have the full version 4 disc loaded and play with no disc in the computer. i have way more that is needed to play this game and it still choppie and the sound echos over and over..video at cut scenes very choppie and audeo hit or miss other than that its great..i am using win xp. deliterman.

Oddly, I agree with most of you. I too have almost finished the game. The 'game' sections run smoothly but the long, and even the slightly long, cutscenes are a real problem. they are choppy and awkward. I also have a few problems saving over an already saved scene. (I have needed to do that with only 8 save slots.)

Good morning all. I did install the game, watched the intro, am at the very, very beginning where he has to 'fix the iron door' and the guy is snoring on the bed, so I have not yet really begun the game. I've been addicted to 'Jewel Quest'. Since reading this great feedback, I may give it a try today to see if I experience the same problems. As far as the intro and beginning of play, it's a smooth as silk...
